The Romford Labour Party are pleased to announce that Angelina Leatherbarrow has been selected to take on the Tories as Labour's Parliamentary Candidate for Romford at the general election on June 8th.

Angelina is an NHS worker who lives in Romford town centre with her young family and is also chair of Romford Labour.

On her selection Angelina said: "As an NHS worker, raising a young family in Romford, I have seen first-hand the damage Tory cuts have had on us all. I will be an MP for the many, not the few.

At the heart of my campaign I will be opposing cuts to our schools and NHS. As someone who voted 'Remain' I will also be fighting against a Tory-led hard brexit, backed up by the Lib Dems who have already said they would go into coalition with the Tories again.
